“This was a last minute booking and Sonja made it work! She is awesome and treats are two dogs so well! Her notes and texts make us feel so comfortable and give us a smile while we are gone.”


“Hannah did such a great job with our cat and dog. Our dog tends to be very skittish and afraid, and Hannah knew exactly how to handle him. Thank you Hannah and Rover for taking great care of our beloved pets!❤️”


“Bryanna took extra care with Jackson. We had lost his buddy on June 1 and this was the first time I had left him for more than a few hours. Jackson was happy and well cared for. I’m so happy with the care Bryanna provides.”


About: I've grown up with dogs and once I lived on my own, soon adopted 3 cats. I've had several dogs and cats throughout my life, loving them as my children. Every animal I meet melts my heart in their own special way and I fall in love every time. I would be honored to care for your fur [or scale!] baby/ies! I currently work part time at petco in the evenings mostly. I do have my own animals, but find myself always wishing I had more. I have plenty of time and heart to give! I will feed your animal the directed amount in the directed time. I will play with your cat/dog several times throughout the day. For dogs, potty breaks every 2 hours minimum. And as many cuddles and hugs as they want!

“We were traveling from out of state and needed a dog sitter at the last minute. Finding Alexis felt like such a blessing. From the moment we met her, we could feel her warmth and genuine love for animals. She has such a kind, easygoing spirit that immediately put us — and our dog — at ease. We trusted her completely with both our pup and our RV, and it gave us such peace of mind. Thank you, Alexis, for being such a beautiful soul and for taking such wonderful care of our baby. We are so grateful our paths crossed, and we’ll absolutely reach out again whenever we’re back in the area!”


About: I grew up with dogs and cats my whole life. I grew up with 2 husky mixes and 3 cats in my childhood home and I currently have 1 cattle dog and 2 cats. I also had the pleasure of house sitting for a few families consistently while they were away on vacations. I work early mornings so I have plenty of the daylight to spend time with your dogs! I’m available after 1pm to do daily walks, checks ins, and will have hours available for boarding. I have a fully fenced in yard and a 2 year old cattle dog that loves to make friends and play but also understands boundaries. I have a cat as well but I have a two story house so she can be separated from your dog if need be! I can easily crate your dog if needed as well. I am very flexible and accommodating to whatever your fur baby needs to feel comfortable and safe.

“Renee did an excellent job caring for our little fur babies Bodhi (dog) & Luna (cat). Her response time to my last minute request was so quick - we had a meet-n-greet booked in just moments. And, during her stay in our home she followed all requested guidelines & provided us with photos to put us at ease. She even left us a hand-written thank you note upon our return home. I fully recommend her services!”


“Alyssa was wonderful with our 8-year-old rescue Annie. She asked thoughtful questions, and sent multiple daily photos and texts. With Alyssa I knew Annie was in good hands and helped make moving our daughter to grad school so much less stressful. Will be requesting her again. Thanks, Alyssa!”


“Courtney did an amazing job taking care of our Germans Shepherd. She was easy to communicate with and sent us videos and pictures of Elsa while we were gone. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing Elsa was in good hands. I would highly recommend Courtney to care for your fur babies.”


About: I have taken care of animals since I was 8 years old. It has always been a passion of mine. I would always walk the neighbors dog’s and my family always relied on me to take care of their animals . I absolutely love animals. I am a volunteer at the local Rescue Group. I occasionally foster dogs that come from New Mexico that were going to be euthanized for space. I am a dog owner that will love your pets like my own. I have been a owner and dog sitter for years. I am flexible and available to customize to your dogs needs. I offer long walks, feedings, and lots of love and company. My dogs Hudson and Sadie are my pride and joy. I spend a lot of time outside with them and inside enrichment toys and puzzles. Sadie is a Blue Heeler and she needs lots of mental stimulation. I also have a kitten named Oreo who thinks he is a dog. I work from home so I am home 90% of the time. Please feel free to message me and we can talk about your dogs needs. I can send you pictures throughout the stay if you would like as well. I am home 80% of the time. It is something I am passionate about and love. I also run a small business from home so never worry about your fur babies being alone. I have three dogs of my own so adding a few more to my daily routine makes it just a little more fun. I have a fully fenced in backyard. I have two of my own dogs to keep your animals active and playing. I do prefer the dog to be crated at night for their safety. I have an alarm system as well as outside video surveillance.

About: I have a deep love and understanding of pets coming from a lifetime of pet ownership and a "pet family" background. Having rescues has taught me many things and provided me with experiences working with food aggressive, animal aggressive, malnourished, and unhealthy animals. My dog has recently gone through extensive leg surgery allowing me to learn how to rehab and work with disabled pets. As a pet owner, I know that pets are family and treat them as so. I own a large breed dog so am familiar with working with pets over 100 pounds. I am a teacher which demonstrated my patience and compassion, even in difficult situations. Just as a teacher creates a positive learning environment for children, a calm and supportive atmosphere is created for pets. This patience is important when working with pets, particularly those who are shy, anxious, or have behavioral quirks. I can following instructions and adapt to each pet's routine, ensuring a seamless experience for pets and owners. As a teacher, I am done working by 3 pm allowing for lots of playtime and walks after school. I enjoy getting up early as well. Currently, I am on summer break so I have lots of flexibility. When pet owners leave, I understand the importance of routine and consistency for dogs. I am very good at following directions and can easily adapt my schedule to meet the needs of your pet— whatever that may be!

About: I have always loved animals. I grew up taking care of dogs and now that I have moved away from home, I found that I love watching other's pets. I have experience watching my friends and families pets, which gave me a lot of experience caring for different breeds of dogs, ranging from smaller to bigger dogs. I have the patience and experience to make your dog feel safe and cared for. I am currently enrolled in college and I have time in between classes for pet care and most of my nights after 3:00pm are mostly open. During the summer months, I am very flexible because I work part time and get to pick my hours for work. I do not have a problem with the pet being free roaming throughout the apartment while I am there, but I can use a crate if thats what the owner is more comfortable with. While taking the pet outside, I will always put them on a leash because I do not have a fenced in yard. I am pretty flexible with how the owner wants the pet to be cared for, as long as that is communicated in advance.

“Rachel was amazing. Great communication throughout the whole process. We hesitate leaving our sweet, old boy alone but had no qualms after meeting Rachel. Would recommend her to anyone!”


About: Grew up on a farm always enjoying the love and joy of dogs and cats! My house in the country has a big yard and family farm fields around it.

My 15 year old daughter and I spent our time caring for our 16 year old dog Pickles until she passed - feeding, walking, bathing, snuggling, and loving.

About: I've had three black labs in my life, who have turned me into a dog obsessed human! When I attend social gatherings, I am usually found hanging out with the dog giving it some loving attention. When I was younger I walked my neighbors' dogs. One of these dogs was deaf and I learned different ways to communicate with him. I am friendly and compassionate and will provide your pet with warmth and snuggles while you are away! I work full time during the week, but evenings and most weekends I'm free to care for dogs. Whether your pup is looking for a quick walk, a mozy around the neighborhood, an active, engaging play session, or an overnighter- I will, with the occasional help of my labrador, Bella along with our dog friend, Frankie, make sure to keep your pup happy and occupied. I have a fenced in yard, a couple of friendly dogs of my own, and can crate your pup with their own crate, so please provide if crating is preferred. I prefer a meet and greet to ensure a good fit for your pup. That would look different depending on the service. Dog walking and House Sitting: I will meet you and your fur friend at your home - this will help establish trust and familiarity for the dog while you are there. At this point we can go over the safest entry into your home, routines for your pup, and any specific care requirements. Doggy Day Care and Boarding: You will meet at my home. Where I will bring my two dogs out to meet you and your pup (everybody leashed) and we can talk and sniff and ensure initial vibes are correct for everybody's safety. When we confirm that the dogs are showing no signs of threat/discomfort, we can move everybody into the gated area of our yard and let your dog off leash. We have lots of smells and space to roam about, so this should be an exciting little adventure for your friend. At this point you can share any specific care instructions and routines important to your dog's happiness.

Kaitlyn M.
“Kaitlyn is a fantastic pet parent. And would make an even better pet sitter. I’ve known Kaitlyn over 10 years now, and one of the very first things I learned about her was her love for all animals. Whether her own, mine or a random strangers off the street. She has 2 cats and more recently, adopted the sweetest dog, all of whom she places needs before her own. She spends hours training her dog with the patience of a saint and yhe utmost love. Which is no surprise because she treats all animals like they are her own. She is always more excited to see my pets than she is me. She is a pet lover through and through. The amount of love, time and effort she puts into animal care is completely unmatched. Kaitlyn also finds staying up to date with vaccines, annual bet visits and exercise of great importance. Finally, Kaitlyn truly believes that pets are a part of our lives for such a short time, they deserve all of the love, kindness and attention. Because of these traits, i know Kaitlyn would make absolute best pet sitter for anyone, putting their pets needs above all else.”
